Paytm - Calendar View of Air Fare

Experience:

Paytm is a well-known Indian digital wallet and payment company which provides bus, flight & train booking services.

Recently while checking flights on Paytm, I found a different but good design of the calendar 📅. Paytm use fare calendar while searching the flights. A user can clearly see the date with the lowest fare in the calendar.

‍

Paytm designed this calendar with simplicity and It provides two facilities to the user at the same time with a simple design and makes user's task easy. Also, user can arrange their plans by seeing a fare of other dates in the calendar.

Learning:

1. Making user's task easy should be core focus while designing and developing any feature.

2. If you are solving more than one problem in a feature, then Design should be simple and clear. User should easily understand everything.

Suggestions:

1. Guidelines for users to understand the idea behind using different colors on different dates can be very useful.
